Deadly Offer by Elaina Loughty

Trust is a luxury they can’t afford… but living without it might cost them everything.

Reuben has found his footing in Nikon Matvei’s criminal empire, but his growing confidence puts him on the radar of Dmitrii Miroslav—a rival boss determined to steal everything Nikon values.
As Dmitrii’s manipulation and an internal betrayal threaten to tear the Matvei family apart, Reuben finds himself caught between his desire for independence and his deepening feelings for Nikon.
The possessive protection that once saved Reuben now feels like a gilded cage. And for Nikon, loosening his grip means risking the only person who makes him feel human.
With enemies circling and allies turning traitor, Reuben and Nikon must navigate the ultimate test: Can their relationship survive in a world where trust is a dangerous liability?

Book 2 in the House of Matvei series is a dark MM mafia romance with high-stakes tension, possessive behavior, and a battle for trust that will leave you breathless!
